Colline del Crati Wine Tour

Since the late thirties, the owner, a doctor with a great passion for agriculture and viticulture in particular, renewed the vineyards. In 1995, a new vineyard renovation work began, starting a careful clonal selection of the native grape varieties present in the company as the sweet magliocco and the pecorello, alongside some international grape varieties such as cabernet-sauvignon and chardonnay. The current 30 hectares of vineyards produce white and red grapes: the vineyards are surrounded by other traditional crops of the Cosenza hills such as the Calabrese fig and the olive trees with Carolea, sweet Rossano, and roggianella cultivars extending over 10 hectares. The company is located at 600 m above sea level, resulting in a marked day-night temperature range that enhances the aromatic intensity of the grapes. The company's soil, located at the foot of the Sila, consists of granitic sand, which gives the wines a distinctive minerality.
